In the early morning of Saturday, January 10th, Beth Israel Congregation was the victim of an arson attack. The fire destroyed their lobby, offices, and library, as well as damaged the rest of their sacred spaces. Learn more about the attack here.

Just as in 1967, when the congregation was bombed to discourage their support of civil rights, Beth Israel Congregation’s leaders vow to rebuild. Please consider donating to these efforts.

As UUs, we are called to resist the hate and antisemitism that fueled this act and instead put love at the center of all we do. Please share your love with our Jewish brothers and sisters and stand in solidarity as they move forward.
